InFocus ScreenPlay 4805 DLP Projector

The InFocus ScreenPlay DLP Projector we purchased has been a wonderful addition to our family entertainment. Using an empty wall and a white sheet, until we get a screen, we can view a dvd or anything on cable TV as if we had a very large TV. The setup was simple, the directions for use very clear and the projection quality is excellent. My husband, whom this item was purchased for, is delighted with this product, which was a real bargain at $385.00. Similar products can cost up to $2,000.00, so this is an economical way to watch our favorite movies and TV programs on a big screen. I highly recommend this product as an alternative to costly big screen TVs.

I LOVE my 4805! I've wanted one for four years and finally was able to get one. I originally started to bid on one that was up for $150 and the bidding ended at $325. I did not win but I had noticed this one posted for a "Buy Now" at $350. I've been watching the price for at least 3 years and $350 was a bargain since they normally go for $450-$500 even for a used or refurbished model.

Since I've had it, the day I got it, I plugged it in and watch it every night. It's awesome and a real bargain compared to buying a big screen HD LCD flat screen that is less than a quarter the size what I get on my living room wall. I could have paid thousands of dollars for a new TV and not had half as much screen or fun. I currently watch movies on my wall in 16'x 9', yes, 16 feet by 9 feet. I watch movies, internet, play PS3. It's just awesome and wayyyy better than just a regular tv. We've had family over and with 9 people watching a movie and making microwave popcorn we probably save over half the purchase price, $150-$200 easy. So, it's definitely paid for itself within just a couple of viewings. Even when I have to replace the bulb (I got it with less than 500hrs of use on a 4000hr bulb), I won't mind because it will still give me more screen for my money than a regular television. The picture is crisp and beautiful. I watched "Out of Africa" and "Sky Captain in The World of Tomorrow" last night and they both were amazing. Tonight, "Star Wars Empire Strikes Back." It's an amazing home theater starter.

Everything about this projector is wonderful!
The color wheel is made up of 6 segments of only red,green and blue.
There are no clear sections and this configuration creates a really spectacular picture. The projector is less than 1000 lumens but in a properly built home theater I've found it to be more than adequate! and the fact that the 4805 is actually a native 16x9 aspect ratio it's right at home with both movie and HD formats!! For the price, it's the best one out there!! Aces all the way!

This projector has a better picture than ones costing 3-4 times as much. Because it is native widescreen and has Faroudja processing chips it can reproduce DVDs far better than projectors designed to handle primarily business presentations. If you are looking to buy your first projector and not spend a lot of money then buy this one! If you are looking for a cheap way to make your xbox or PS3 go really BIG screen then buy this projector!

It was exactly as offered, Unit Works Great! Very Happy with the purchase. I bought the Infocus 4805 Screenplay to replace one that had a broken part, It is a great running piece of equipment and very versatile, Great Picture and Quality! Of all the Home and Commercial Units out there the Infocus 4805 is a contender among the best.
